  • While some fear China’s economic and technological dominance, Johan Norberg explains how China’s increasing authoritarianism and move away from the free market will not only prevent China from becoming rich, but rather risks making it poor again.

    Steps that countries take to counteract other countries' mercantilist schemes are often efficient and pro-market. Imagine there are only two countries in the world operating under free market conditions, country A and B. One day country B artificially lowers the value of its currency in order to increase its exports to and decrease its imports from country A. If country A responds by artificially lowering the value of its currency to restore the relative value of its currency to where it was prior to country B's manipulation, then country A has restored the market to its free market conditions.

    He is wrong at least two: decline of population is not an issue in China. There is plenty of unemployment right now. Second, liberation of TW is a sovereignty issue, not an issue just for the CPC. Whoever is in power, whatever political ideology the government has, it has to do one day, because this is the will of 1.4 billion Chinese people living all over the world.

    • @Joe_Kool
      @Joe_Kool หลายเดือนก่อน +6

      Ugh, for one, the depopulation of China is a significant problem for China! It would be for any country. If you knew anything about the demographic growth information of a population, you would be a little more concerned: a large elderly population who can't work also can't contribute to GDP or societal welfare benefits; only a healthy working-age population can do that. Two, Taiwan is a sovereign state: only a sovereign state should be able to say what it does and does not want for its population. Or do you also believe that Taiwan should have the same right to invade mainland China and impose its own will on its population?

    I have three key points on this:
    1). Trade with China 2024 more often means:
    West import from China, but China doesnt import from West = Big trade surplus for China.
    2). Apple and other big international companies more and more are exiting China for manufacturing in other neighborhood countries like India/Vietnam/etc so they dont ”need” to rely on China for cheaper manufacturing as much in 2024 as they did in the years before.
    3). And how can the other states not be protectionst when China clearly are planing by unfair trade rules as with artifical devaluing their currency and subsidizing their industries to gain a greater advantage over their international competitors?

      1. there's nothing that stops other nations from doing the same. chip act, ira, oil subsidies, tax incentives, auto & banks bail outs...same things?
      2. China invested heavily in the last 25 years to secure resources supply chain while others only secure the next quarterly earnings report. is this cheating ?
      3. big numbers of exports are actually foreign firms that make products in China then ship them out. apple? GM? VW? BMW? BOSCH?....huge long list

      1. Trade deficits are meaningless. I have a trade deficit with Wal-Mart. Who cares?
      2. Norberg said that manufacturing was moving out of China, in part because of the political situation and in part because labor was becoming more expensive there.
      3. Because protectionism hurts the state imposing it far more than it hurts the "target" country. There is a reason why the per capita GPD of China is 1/8th that of the US. For example, China spends their taxpayer Yuan to offer goods to US consumers at a discount. That's good for US consumers, but bad for Chinese taxpayers. Why should the US hurt ourselves economically just because China chooses to do so?
      The US should unilaterally impose free trade policies regardless of what China does. Because it's good for the US. Yes, it would be better if China also had free trade policies. Especially for the Chinese people. But whether or not China imposes free trade, free trade policies are beneficial to the US.
